I download xen3.0.2-23.src.rpm and build the dom0 Kernel in Fedora COre 5 in x86 mode. I did not build a domU kernel at all.
 
I tried to run ./xenguest-install.py in dom0 kernel after booting into it.. I got this error
"No module named libvirt".
 
I then tried installing libvirt-0.0.6-1.i386.rpm using
"rpm --install libvirt-0.0.6-1.i386.rpm"
 
I get failed dependencies error such as
"libxenstore.so is needed by libvirt-0.0.6-1.i386
xen is needed by libvirt-0.0.6-1.i386"
 
what am I missing here ? I have libxenstore.so in /usr/lib.
 
thanks for your help

I have libxenstore.so in /usr/lib. The version of Xen you installed probably has a newer libxenstore.so which includes versioning, while the libvirt you installed was linked against the older non-versioned libxenstore.so. What does rpm -q --provides xen xen-libs | grep xenstore Show ? BTW, you'll also want libvirt-python RPM too Regards, Dan. -- |=- Red Hat, Engineering, Emerging Technologies, Boston. +1 978 392 2496 -=| |=- Perl modules: http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ -=| |=- Projects: http://freshmeat.net/~danielpb/ -=| |=- GnuPG: 7D3B9505 F3C9 553F A1DA 4AC2 5648 23C1 B3DF F742 7D3B 9505 -=|
